Yes you can use a USB hub. You can use NTFS in Debian using ntfs-3g, which is a fuse based mechanism for mounting/managing NTFS volumes. I wouldn't recommend NTFS as a filesystem though - I'd imagine you'll get better performance from a native Linux filesystem (e.g. ext3). The LEDs on the Slug under Debian provide different information than usual unslung or the Linksys firmware: http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Debian/FAQ fdisk is the easiest way (imho) to create the partitions you require. by the way, be aware of the known issue of having more than one hard disk attached: http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/HowTo/MountDisksByLabel Jon -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
